Oh Twitter Tools, why do you persist…

March 19th, 2009

I officially give up.

Twitter Tools will not work, it had to post each of my daily tweets twice so for now, it’s disabled!

If anyone has any ideas, please email me (mattybeard@gmail.com).

In the meantime, time to find a new Twitter widget me thinks!

Gym, Ice Skating and The Simpsons Game.

March 7th, 2009

Well, another Saturday is upon me. And this week hasn’t really been any different than any other week!

After having a day off that I really shouldn’t of from the gym on Monday, I made up for it by going every day in the week :) This 300 miles in 30 days challenge is really fun and means I have a target for all this cardio work. Anyway, that’s enough about the gym.

Well, I’ve finally finished the Simpsons game on Xbox 360. Was determined to get at least 50% of the achievements and finish it before shoving it off back to LoveFilm.

The Simpsons GameNot actually a bad game, I’d heard duff reviews from a few of my mates who’d played it, but I enjoyed it so give it a go. It’s the best TV show related game that I’ve ever played and does have the pure Simpsons comedic value. So yeah, rent it. Don’ buy it – the length of the game just doesn’t warrant the price.

Anyway, I don’t only play games! Some wiseass on Facebook decided upon going Ice Skating on a Friday night. What a ridiculous idea! After not having skated on ice or wheels in at least 7 years, it was very unsuccessful. Half way around my first lap, I decided to toey the ice with the front of my blade resulting in my skidding across the ice, ending up on my arse in the middle of a group of 18/19/20 year old lads. Lovely and embarrassing. I hope we do Go-Karting or something next week!

Right, off to the Trafford Centre today. Enjoy your day.

Beard.

Welcome to the world of blogging!

March 1st, 2009

Why hello there!

This is my introductory post on my new website, mbeard.co.uk. For now it is only a short and sweet one to get the ball rolling, hopefully soon it will develop into something much much more.

I’ll be using this blog for a variety of different things – random thoughts in my brain, tracking my Xbox Live account and gamerscore aswell as reviewing any games I play which I feel a need to be reviewed, tracking my fitness progress in the gym and anything else that I can generally be bothered writing about.

For now, that’s it. You can expect a much larger post at a later point today or tomorrow and at the same time I’ll be developing my site and making it better (and making it work, damn this Twitter Tools!).

In the meantime, speak soon.

Beard
